The wearing of trousers by women {Part 2}

For taking your time to study remain blessed.  Topic: THE WEARING OF TROUSERS BY WOMEN (PART 2) June Monday 1st Text: Proverbs 7:10-13  Key verse: Proverbs 27:23 “Be thou diligent to know the state of thy flocks, and look well to thy herds.” QUESTION: Why is it not preached in the churches that wearing trousers by women is forbidden by God? ANSWER (continued): The pastors failed from the beginning. When Satan made his initial incursion, they did not take notice. It started when the women in the early ages were splitting their skirts, such that as they were moving you would be seeing their laps exposed and they could climb up the pulpit and the pastor would not say anything. They did not know that that was an introduction from the devil to disturb the people’s heart. Instead of doing something and rejecting it, they were managing it. Initially, they created a slit at the back and when they had gathered enough converts, they began to open the skirts in the front. This way, you can see th
May 31 TOPIC : IT IS IN THE CHARACTER OF GOD TO REVEAL HIMSELF TO PEOPLE Text: Acts 10:11-15, 34-35 Key verse: 2 Samuel 22:7  In my distress I called upon the LORD, and cried to my God: and he did hear my voice out of his temple, and my cry did enter into his ears.  After the fall of man, God could have isolated mankind and damned him to the consequences of his sin but in His eternal love for man, He has continued to reveal Himself to people in various ways and for various reasons: To save them in times of great need. We see His great deliverance manifested when Noah was saved from the flood, when Abram was called from idolatry to worship God and when Moses was called to save the Israelites from the land of bondage in Egypt. To bring salvation. Matthew 1:21 And she shall bring forth a Son, and thou shalt call His Name JESUS: for He shall save His people from their sins.  To destroy the works of Satan. 1 John 3:8 He that committeth

TOPIC: THE FIRST RESURRECTION                                                 May  Saturday 30th Text: Daniel 12:1-5  Key verse: Revelation 20: 6 Blessed and holy is he that hath part in first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years. The first resurrection is termed the resurrection to life eternal while the second resurrection is termed the resurrection to eternal damnation. The first resurrection is in five stages: (i) The resurrection of Christ the first fruit of the resurrection ii) The resurrection of the Church age saints (iii) The resurrection of the two witnesses (iv) The resurrection of the tribulation saints (v) The resurrection of the Old Testament saints. The first resurrection is made up of five different phases, but the second resurrection is just one resurrection. The first stage of the first resurrection began with the res

Perhaps you were playing fraud in ministry before, then you heard that the Lord is moving in Holiness Revival Movement and you came with zeal. When we saw your zeal, we thought you were genuine and gave you assignment. In the course of time, you became prominent and well known even internationally because the messages you were preaching in Holiness Movement are all over the internet. If we later discover that you are not true and genuine but evil and wicked; if we discover that you are compromising on God’s word and you are of darkness, surely you will not continue your ministry of falsehood and error here. We will remove you from ministry because you are not fit; your name is not in the book of life. Even when those who had divine encounter and saw Jesus with their naked eyes leave righte
For taking your time to study remain blessed. May Thursday 28th TOPIC: THE MARVEL OF GOD’S WISDOM, KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING Text: Romans 11: 33-36 Key verse: 1 Corinthians 1:25 Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men. Let us examine God’s creative wisdom. How God made things that are relevant to each other yet they are not aware. It takes a man many years of study to understand a little portion of the knowledge of life, but God has perfect knowledge of everything even before they were created. He has perfect knowledge about you. He knows what you are thinking and what all your plans are. He knows your tomorrow, declaring the end from the beginning. That is why we depend on Him absolutely and must trust Him for whatever actions He takes concerning our lives. The things that He does now, you will understand later. That which will take place later, He understands them already. This is wonderful! Perfect wisdom; all-wise God! A
For taking your time to study remain blessed. May Wednesday 27th TOPIC: WHY DID YOU GO BACK TO YOUR VOMIT? TEXT: Isaiah 52:1-6 KEY VERSE: Acts 3:19 Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord.  Your mind has left God. Your mind has gone back to reconsider the earrings. You have gone back to reconsider the woman of the world with the rags and dirt and defilement in them as if they are precious. You are even regretting why you cleaned up yourself. The Lord wants to know what made you change your mind so quickly. What made your mind to now go to vanity? With this, have you not made yourself useless, empty, and with nothing of value inside you again? Spiritually, you are now poor and wretched! No prayer life, no study of God’s word, no fasting, no regular fellowship and communion in the assembly of saints, no more attending night vigil. The Lord has weighted you on a scale and found you to b

May Tuesday 26th TOPIC: TRUST GOD FOR THE CONVERSION OF YOUR UNBELIEVING CHILDREN Text: Genesis 18: 17-19 Key verse: Numbers 14: 28 Say unto them, As truly as I live, saith the LORD, as ye have spoken in mine ears, so will I do to you: God has the power to convert your unbelieving children to salvation, righteousness, and holiness. Geographic location will not prevent God from saving your unbelieving children onto salvation. Whatever the complexity of the character of your unbelieving children, believe God for a transformation. May the LORD bring salvation to your unbelieving children and contend with any satanic powers that fight against them in Jesus’ Name! Psalm 35:1 Plead my cause, O LORD, with them that strive with me: fight against them that fight against me. God will save your unbelieving children that have run away from your home. God will save the sick, the lunatic, the demonized, and the stubborn ones in Jesus’ Name! May every de

TOPIC: TESTIMONY OF MIRACULOUS ESCAPE FROM DEATH May Monday 25th Text: Psalm 103: 1-8 Key verse: Psalm 103:2 Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits. Below is testimony from a sister in Holiness Revival Movement in one of the chapters in Abuja, Nigeria: I thank God for His mercies upon my family, for not allowing sorrow and tragedy to befall us on 13th August 2019. My younger sister had a dream before then and saw herself dressed in white attire and walking along a road with some strange people. She met someone that asked her to go back and remove the white clothes. She continued going until she later met another person that told her to go back and change because the clothes did not fit her. She obeyed and then woke up from sleep. She then prayed that God should deliver her from every evil work. On that fateful day, she went with her baby to the market in Nyanya, Abuja to buy some things and on her way back, she bo
For taking your time to study remain blessed. May Sunday 24th TOPIC: PRAY FOR CHRISTIAN MINISTERS AND LEADERS Text: 1Timothy 2:1-4 Key verse: 1Timothy 2:8 I will therefore that men pray every where, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and doubting. In case you are already saying, “Our leader has started making mistakes,” there is a voice asking you, “How many times have you prayed for him? When you saw that the mistake is becoming too much, how many times did you take it to God in fasting? Do you have right to complain?” Who among you is more righteous – the leader in his mistake or you the complainer? That is the question because the Bible says, “I exhort first of all that supplications and prayers be made.” It will wipe away backbiting and gossiping because if we can pray “we will lead a quiet and peaceable life with all godliness and honesty” and grace will flow from God to us, our leaders and the congregation. Let us pray and see whether we will see people disagreeing and fight

TOPIC: HOW PARADISE GOT RELOCATED TO HEAVEN May Saturday 23rd Text: Acts 7:55-60 Key verse: Acts 7:55 But he, being full of the Holy Ghost, looked up steadfastly into heaven, and saw the Glory of God, and Jesus standing on the right hand of God. When the Lord resurrected from the dead, the dead old testament saints too came out and went with him to heaven. This was when paradise moved from under the earth to heaven above. From that time those who die in Christ no longer go to the lower part of the earth, but straight to heaven. Their souls go straight to heaven and as such there is nothing like soul sleeping since paradise, their place of abode is now in heaven. From the account of the martyrdom of Stephen as seen in our reading text, Jesus was standing in heaven at the right hand of God the Father and was ready to receive the soul of the righteous that was on the verge of death on earth. So the souls of the r

TOPIC: BENEFITS OF COMPLETE TRUST IN GOD May Wednesday 20th Text: Psalm 3:5, 6 Key verse: Isaiah 12:2 Behold, God is my salvation; I will trust, and not be afraid: for the LORD JEHOVAH is my strength and my song; He also is become my salvation. Your heart will be free from all kinds of fear. Your trust in God instills confidence in you that the Lord will surely intervene in that matter that has arisen against you and will save you. All the fear of Satan and what the future holds for you will vanish away. Even the fear of death will disappear if you have come to the point of total trust in your God, who is the Author and Finisher of your faith. Your confidence is that whether you live or die, it is all to the glory of God. Whatever happens or does not happen to you in the future is in God’s hands. Let your heart be on God and you will never be afraid of what the enemy is declaring or planning against you. Have you signed the contra

TOPIC: TIMOTHY’S LOYALTY WAS UNQUESTIONABLE May Tuesday 19th Text: Philippians 2:19-24 Key verse: Philippians 2:22 But ye know the proof of him, that, as a son with the father, he hath served with me in the gospel. God Himself was the one that called Timothy and brought him to Christ and to the Christian ministry. Paul was speaking how he laid hands on Timothy, urging him to stir up the gift that was in him that he may do the work. There is something commendable about Timothy’s loyalty and submission to Paul. Timothy was not self-seeking. He was not looking for his own glory. He was not looking for a name. He was not proud. Pride in particular is the problem of young men. They want to be known. I was discussing with a particular youth who was full of ambition. I told him that I started the Christian ministry when he was probably two years old. It took several years for me to get to where I am now, receiving invitation here and
For taking your time to study remain blessed. May Monday 18th TOPIC: DANIEL AS A BIBLICAL EXAMPLE OF EXEMPLARY LIFESTYLE TEXT: Daniel 1:3-7 KEY VERSE: Daniel 1:8 But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the king's meat, nor with the wine which he drank: therefore, he requested of the prince of the eunuchs that he might not defile himself. Ignorant people will say it is impossible for anybody to live a holy life. This sad commentary is even found right in the church. They want to make God a liar who says, BE YE HOLY; FOR I AM HOLY. They make it look as difficult as inventing a space rocket. Yet it is not an impossible task otherwise no believer will go to heaven. All the saints of old in the Bible and also in our own day lived a holy life, they died and entered heaven. Holiness is the gate pass through the gate of heaven. Without holiness, no man shall see the Lord. It is the holy living that gives birth to exemplary life. Therefore, we

May Sunday 17th TOPIC: HOLINESS MOVEMENT IS STANDING IN THE GAP FOR NIGERIA Text: Psalm 113: 1-9 Key verse: Psalm 113:3 From the rising of the sun unto the going down of the same the LORD's name is to be praised. The Lord has revealed through many infallible proofs that He has chosen to use Nigeria for revival of righteousness, holiness and truth in Christianity in this end time. This revival has started already through Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide, with headquarters in Abuja, Nigeria. The devil’s strategy has been to disrupt, scatter and quench the fire of Christianity in Nigeria through any means possible. Sadly, the devil succeeded over many churches and denominations in turning them off the narrow way, using false prophets, false doctrines, operation of witches, wizards, marine agents, including governmental and non-governmental agencies and various other strategies. The Islamization agenda has become an open secret.
For taking your time to study remain blessed. May Saturday 16th TOPIC: THE CHRISTIAN APPROACH TO RESTITUTION TEXT: Exodus 22:1-15 KEY VERSE: James 1: 4 But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing. Though restitution is a general practice around the world, there is a Christian approach to it – the godly or Biblical approach. The way the society goes about restitution may not be exactly the way the Bible wants it done. The way the courts of law instruct or compel it may not be the way the Bible directs that you do it. As a matter of fact, Christian Restitution may go beyond the demands of the court. For example, if you embezzled Government money and you are taken to the court of law and convicted, but you claim you do not have the money to pay back, the court may sentence you to jail. When you get out of prison, you may go back and get the money from wherever you hid it and continue to enjoy yourself without further harassment on the same ma

TOPIC: LET YOUR MINISTRY BE A DOUBLE-EDGED SWORD May Friday 15th Text: Psalm 122:1-9 Key verse: Luke 2:34 And Simeon blessed them, and said unto Mary his mother, Behold, this child is set for the fall and rising again of many in Israel; and for a sign which shall be spoken against; Let your commitment be complete and sacrificial in HOREMOW for God has raised up a true body meant to revive righteousness and holiness upon the earth. The Lord has raised it up. Be confident to go along with us for the Lord has spoken good concerning us, so that when the Lord shall bless us, you will be blessed also. Just as Simeon prophesied, some people stumbled and fell. The Pharisees, Sadducees, the chief priests and many Jews fell. In Israel, they fell and missed their God. It was said of Jesus, it was said of the prophets of God, for the word of God is shaper than any two-edged sword. We are for your construction and for your bless
For taking your time to study remain blessed. TOPIC: THE WONDER OF GOD’S HOLINESS May Thursday 14th Text: Psalm 96: 1-13 Key verse: Revelation 4:8 And the four beasts had each of them six wings about him; and they were full of eyes within: and they rest not day and night, saying, Holy, holy, holy, LORD God Almighty, which was, and is, and is to come. The holiness of God is His eternal essence – a unique quality of His character. It is what makes God to be God. Everything He does is done in holiness – whether His mercy, or forgiveness or benevolence or salvation or chastisement or His judgment. “Which was, and is, and is to come” indicates that the holiness of God is attached to His eternal living. If God was not holy, He would not live forever. His existence will cease. That is why God hates sin because if He identifies with sin, He will cease to exist. It is holiness that keeps God living. Holy, holy, holy, LORD God Almighty, which was, a

May Wednesday 13th TOPIC: REASONS FOR RESTITUTION 3 – TO REMOVE GUILTY CONSCIENCE TEXT: Leviticus 6:1-5 KEY VERSE: Acts 24:16 And herein do I exercise myself, to have always a conscience void of offence toward God, and toward men. Another reason for restitution is because it is required to remove your feeling of guilt. Guilt is something that haunts a person. If you have done something wrong, guilt will haunt your conscience. If you don’t get rid of it by doing your restitution, you will continue to feel disturbed. You will be guilt-ridden in everything you do and will begin to think, “Are people aware that this is what I did?” It will also create a morbid fear in you because the guilty are always afraid. So, restitution is required to remove your feeling of fear, guilt and condemnation. Sometimes, the Lord will bring up a conviction on you on an evil you did in the past. Your peace will cease and a sense of c

Mary believed in God’s promises with humility and without any doubt. Never raise up your shoulder in pride when you ascend to any leadership position. Be humble and do not be proud to others or those under your leadership. Stop exercising your leadership in boast. For instance, it is unholy to speak boastfully like, “Do you not know that I am the Coordinator or Pastor’s wife?” May the same godly quality of humility in Mary come upon you regardless of your status or leadership position in the Church in Jesus’ Name. May the brokenness of Mary possess your life as a child or daughter of God in Jesus’ Name. The gift and calling of God should not make you to become proud and boss
